L’Oreal Color Infallible Eye Shadows Swatches
After speaking to a few bloggers, it has come to my attention that the L’Oreal Color Infallible Eye Shadows are only available in Canada & UK right now. Since I have some of the collection, I thought it would be nice to swatch them for you all!
Infallible Eyeshadows contain ultra concentrated colour pigments, for an intense colour finish. Additional binders (oils) coat and magnify the colour pigments revealing beautiful shimmer and maximized colour. The colour adheres to the eyelid as durably and comfortably as a second skin and lasts for up to 24hrs.
Since I have nine shadows from this collection, this will be a picture heavy post.
All Night Blue
Rich Royal Blue
Unlimited Sky
Powder Blue
Hourglass Beige
Rich off white
Time Resist White
Pearl White
Forever Pink
Pearly Pink
Burning Black
Blacken Eggplant
Purple Obssession
Rich Purple
Permanent Kaki
Pearly khaki
Lastly.. Flashback silver
**Sorry I forgot to take a pic of the package**
These pigments are the cross between a powder and cream. Apparently, they last 24 hours without a primer.
I'll be posting a look with these shadows soon :)
Which one is your favorite!

Sea Buckthorn Facial Cleanser & Hydrating Serum= Love
When I'm stressed it shows up on my face. For the past six months I was doing quite well on my skin care journey...until my holy grail products finished. Ugh I can't begin to tell you how at 26 years old I wish I didn't have a blemish on my skin. I think all of this is payback for going 22 years blemish free. Yes.. You heard me!
I was one of the lucky ones who swore I'd be blemish free for life...but reality has set in :|
So far, I've been using Sibu Beauty Sea Buckthorn Facial Cleanser & Hydrating Serum religiously for over a month.

So far, I've been using Sibu Beauty Sea Buckthorn Facial Cleanser & Hydrating Serum religiously for over a month.
This all-natural balancing facial cleanser gently removes dirt, impurities and make-up while maintaining a healthy balance in your skin without compromising its natural protective nutrients.
Sea Buckthorn Hydrating Serum
This light, non-oily serum will flood your skin with moisture and help deeply hydrate your face and neck to eliminate that tight, dry feeling caused by dehydration. Natural sea buckthorn oils have proven to improve skin tone and texture, and help brighten complexion and stimulates cell renewal.
In one month, my pores have gotten smaller and my scars have faded slightly. Since pictures are better to show my progress. Here is a before and after shot:
Isn't that amazing! Anyone in need of some quick skin assistance check out Sibu over at the Shopping Channel.

To Whiten or not to Whiten, that is the question
Hello.. my name is Jennifer and I love tea.
I can go on about all the health benefits of tea, but i'm here to rant about the after effects.
DISCOLORATION!
I've tried those crest white strips but I'm too lazy to keep on doing them daily!
I'm thinking about getting a full teeth whitening just like Ande (seen below).
I'm scared as hell for the after effects that I heard some people go through:* Chemical burns from gel bleaching
* Pain
* Hot/cold sensitivity
My question for you is what type of teeth whitening products do you use/ have you used?
Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Balm: Hibiscus
I've noticed that some of my followers are really into all natural products. So...let me introduce you to Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Balm in Hibiscus.
I will admit.. I've never used any Burt's Bees lip products or a tinted lip balm before. I've stayed away from tinted lip balms because of horrible color selections!! Most are wayyy to pale for my skintone.
I will admit.. I've never used any Burt's Bees lip products or a tinted lip balm before. I've stayed away from tinted lip balms because of horrible color selections!! Most are wayyy to pale for my skintone.
For the first time I have selection!! Burt's Bee offers six different shades – Hibiscus, Honeysuckle, Tiger Lily, Pink Blossom, Red Dahlia and Rose.
Our new tinted balms give you a hint of color with a soft, sweet flavor and natural ingredients that moisturize and condition your lips.
If your into quick fixes you should look into a tinted lip balm.
While I'm at work I keep this baby right by my desk.
Have you tried a tinted lip balm before?

M•A•C Bloggers Obsessions Video
It's truly my dream to compose/edit a video which is full of makeup and such rich insight. Long story short, if you all don't know... half of my day job (9 to 5) is being a Director, Editor, Producer, Camera Woman and Photographer. While the other half is being a Digital Media and E-Business Specialist. Cool right.. but I love the beauty/fashion world. Making videos like this.. that's my DREAM!
One day hopefully I obtain my goal and spend my days doing something which involves makeup and fashion.

How to Remove Shellac, Glitter and Artistic Colour Gloss Nail Polish tutorial
I love wearing nail polish... but I hate the removal. For years, I avoided polishes with serious glitter or anything with gel. Gel required extra time at the salon for removal. One salon quoted me "$15.00 for soak off removal".
Are you serious?!?
That's the cost of 5 Sally Hansen nail polishes..haha.
